- each imaging device (each implementation) defined by the total number of charge storage means (the storage CCD 12 and the vertical transfer CCD 13 in each embodiment).
- each imaging device (one-to-one correspondence with the imaging position) is controlled to move to another imaging position after imaging at the same imaging position with a predetermined number of frames per CCD1).
- the predetermined number is an image sensor defined by the number of charge storage means ( In each embodiment, the number of frames per CCD1) need not be.
- each CCD Set a predetermined number for each 1 (eg, 100 frames for a CCD that has a one-to-one correspondence with the imaging position 1 ⁇ , 80 frames for a CCD that has a one-to-one correspondence with the imaging position P).
- the control of (B) is performed repeatedly for each CCD.
- the control to move to another imaging position at the imaging period t may be performed only once with only one CCD.
- the specific control of (B) is not particularly limited as long as it is controlled to move to another imaging position at an imaging cycle of a predetermined time interval.
- the present invention can be applied to any imaging method.
- the king has IL (Interline) method, FT (Frame Transfer) method, FFT (Full Frame Transfer) method, FIT (Frame Interline Transfer) method and so on.
- IL Interline
- FT Full Transfer
- FFT Full Frame Transfer
